We need to do everything we can to protect NJ workers against the Trump administration's assault on our communities, our economy & our democracy. NJ legislators can ensure NJ workers have the economic security they need by expanding #JobProtections for workers on family leave.

@GovTimWalz Thank you for your support on this important issue for women and children and ALL families!

Paid leave is about investing in the people who made our economy strong in the first place. startribune.com/counterpoint-a…

The 6 year anniversary of the expansion of NJ #PaidFamilyLeave is today! We still need to improve #JobProtections so that noone has to face losing their job when they need to take their paid leave benefits. Yet 1.7 million workers are not covered by our state job protection law

This year, the benefit amount for paid family and disability leave has increased to a weekly maximum of $1,081! This benefit supports you when you need it most - whether welcoming a new child or caring for a loved one. Please see the accompanying graphics for more information.
